Mazda Mazda5
The Mazda5 has been slightly retouched for 2012. No drastic changes, just a few improvements to give this minivan an edge in an increasingly popular category, especially with the imminent arrival of the Ford C-Max and the updated Kia Rondo. The Mazda5 doesn’t offer a choice of engines, but buyers can decide whether they prefer a 6-speed manual transmission or a 5-speed automatic. The two trim levels are the base GS and the sportier GT.
